fun firsts: He is constantly pulling himself to stand (on everything!) and is trying very hard to stand by himself. He has also figured out how to climb on things like a box (short wide box) and stairs (thankfully none at our house and MIL said she got a baby gate now).

Thanksgiving was good. We hosted thankgiving this year in our new house and there were lots of people everywhere. It was good though. I did brave black "thursday/friday". Since its molded into two days now. I went at 8pm and then about 6am. It was a mad house in the first part because too many people were sitting in aisles waiting for the next set of items to be given (for the 10pm event) or they were sitting with their numerous items waiting for the 5 am thing to start (yes even at . But no fights that I know of and everyone got out in one piece. At the 6 am time we went to 3 different places. It wasn't too bad. It was mostly cleared out by the time we got to each of the places.

Saturday (and part of friday for some) was a bad day. 99% of the people in our house had a bad stomach bug. In addition to our house, my mothers house, my father in law, grandmother in law, grandmothers house, and my aunts house were all sicky from the same bug. THinking that my grandma and cousin/his gf carried the bug and didn't know it to thanksgiving because his daughter was home sick with his mom on thanksgiving. We are thinking they had the bug but just like other viruses/flu/bugs you tend to not have symptoms until 24-48 hours after the fact and thats why its so contagious because you don't realize you have it and passed it along till its too late. My husband ended up in the hospital overnight because he has crohns and it really attacked him including his kidneys. They were expecting him to have to stay a few days but luckily he made a full recovery about 36 hours after the first onset. Glad its mostly gone now.

Doing for myself this week. Umm shower and wrapping presents if I can find the time. Oh and I have a doctors appt to f/u benign PAC's and PVC's. does that count lol.

He has started trying to laugh, he makes small little noises when he tries but hasn't done a full laugh yet, so cute!

His father got to see him on saturday for a couple hours with me there (first he's seen him in over a month) then I allowed him to see him monday while I was working so he text me yesterday wanting him again and when I told him no, he flipped on me and was threatening to try to take him from me.. I know he can't do it, its just frustrating to deal with and I hate the thought of putting Zak thru that battle!

Mommy time this week will be with the boys, lol... hoping to get christmas decorating complete! Izayah seems excited to help with that so it should be fun!

Sorry to hear you came home to a broken fridge, but glad you had a really good get away! He had a wonderful Thanksgiving, but I never do the black friday shopping, those people are crazy and I would much rather pay a little more and not have to deal with it, or do the shopping on the internet because most places have the same deals on black friday or "cyber monday" lol...
